8 ASSESSMENT TASK
1. The car in Fig. 12–2 moves in a straight line such that for a short time
its velocity is defined by 𝑣 = 3𝑡 2 + 2𝑡 𝑓𝑡/𝑠, where 𝑡 is in seconds.
Determine its position and acceleration when 𝑡 = 3 s. When 𝑡 = 0,
𝑠 = 0.

Find: Acceleration
position and acceleration when Since 𝑣 = 𝑓(𝑡), the acceleration
𝑡 =3s is determined from 𝑎 = 𝑑𝑣 Τ𝑑𝑡
since this equation relates 𝑎, 𝑣
Solution:
and 𝑡.
The position coordinate extends 𝑑𝑣 𝑑
from the fixed origin O to the 𝑎= = 3𝑡 2 + 2𝑡
𝑑𝑡 𝑑𝑡
car, positive to the right.
𝑎 = 6𝑡 + 2
Position
Since 𝑣 = 𝑓(𝑡), the car’s When 𝑡 = 3 s,
position can be determined from 𝑎 = 6(3) + 2
𝑣 = 𝑑𝑠Τ𝑑𝑡, since this equation
relates 𝑣, 𝑠, and 𝑡. Noting that 𝑎 = 20 𝑓𝑡Τ𝑠 2
𝑠 = 0 when 𝑡 = 0, we have
𝑑𝑠
𝑣= = 3𝑡 2 + 2𝑡 NOTE: The formulas for constant
𝑑𝑡
𝑑𝑠 = 3𝑡 2 + 2𝑡 𝑑𝑡 acceleration cannot be used to
𝑠 𝑡 solve this problem, because the
0 𝑑𝑠 = 0 3𝑡 2 + 2𝑡 𝑑𝑡 acceleration is a function of
𝑠 3𝑡 3 2𝑡 2 𝑡 time.
